OTTO SoIms. amid great confusion and
interruption, addressed the chair IN the
interest Of Terrell. He concluded bV
asserting that John Copeland would ron
in spite of the convention, and that Ter
rell was the only man that could beat
him.
The first ballot showed Brenneman
oh nd a nlnsa apPnnH French
third and HambletOn last with five
votes. No choice. Hambleton was
dropped. and on the second and third
ballots a similar result. BreDneman
then only wanted three votes to gain the
nomination.
Pereida rose and explained that he
had nominated French as the only man
who could beat Cailaghan. Rats
Rats cried the democratic wing AS
his candidate had no chance there he
didn't want to delay progress. He there
fore withdrew French in favor of Ter
rell.
Then came the final ballot. The
strikers worked hard, and there was
considerable excitement. The demo-
Gratis were confident of Brenneman's
election, but when the vote was de-
clared it showed:
